Well, I said X-wing because the biplane layout has a little (very little) more in common with WWI aircraft, but the ships they were equipped with in the actual short story (It was von Richthofen, Albert Ball, and... I think Ernst Udet? Maybe just the first two) were more along the lines of a TIE fighter, as the Berserkers who'd captured the programmer just wanted them for cannon fodder. Except they then blew all the Berserkers to wreckage, even if only the Baron AI survived the battle. HFY!
